Thanks for the X,Y axis tuning coefficients. Do I need to update the firmware.bin and the index.html.gz files (but not the maslow.yaml? It is hard to know when the yaml has to be updated. When it is, that calls for another calibration right?
I believe that you do not need to update your .yaml file. When you edit those values in the UI and save them they will be added to your existing .yaml file.
That being said, the FluidNC .yaml system can be a little unpredictable and sometimes does things that I don’t expect so if you are seeing some behavior different from what I’m saying let me know and I’ll investigate.

Last weekend I flattened the hourglass table frame. It was getting a bulge along the center seam. Calibration returned (I plan to re-do it once I watch the calibration video - I never thought to put tension on TL and TR - but it makes sense because that is the state it is in when vertical).
Flex measurement: TLBR: 2.863 TRBL: 3.057
Calibration values:
Fitness: 1.4956697369775027
Maslow_tlX: -22.7
Maslow_tlY: 2293.0
Maslow_trX: 3591.8
Maslow_trY: 2306.1
Maslow_blX: 0.0
Maslow_blY: 0.0
Maslow_brX: 3595.6
Maslow_brY: 0.0
I was able to test the new x,y axis tuning variables. To get a true 12x12 square in the middle of the table I used x=0.997402597 y=1.03225806. I just when into FluidNC and set them before a test run.
Moving the CNC along the x axis 2 feet to the right and 2 feet to the left the y axis stayed true, but the x dimension grew 3/32".
Is there another variable I can adjust to compensate for this? It seems a lot like adjusting the convergence on an old analog TV set. Thanks! -Scott

So you are saying that adjusting the X effected the Y as well?
That’s really interesting, I didn’t expect that
I don’t think so. I dialed in both the x and y for the center of the table. I believe this variance has been there for a while and I am just noticing it now when testing. I have a run where I drilled holes with the 4.0 hardware last year. I need to look at those numbers to see if this is a new thing.
So, in short, the y stays true but the x amplifies as it moves toward the left of right.
